Hi to all, it was suggested that i try posting this message, in order to hopefully get help with the USA census's. I am trying to locate my gr. grandfather who i believe went to the US, from the UK, sometime after the 1881 census. His name was Henry Hiesley, but i am certain that he changed his name to Henry Buss. he was born in the UK, 1855. Died in the USA.?? (possibly Maron county) California. Not sure of the date. any help would be greatfully appreciated. Elaine. Australia.
